Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of socks, in particular to a pair of functional socks. Background Art

[0002] Socks are a kind of clothing that covers the feet of the wearer to protect the feet and reduce the discomfort caused by the friction between the feet and the inside and the shoe opening of the shoes. In addition to decorative functions, their functionality is also gradually being valued. People who run, walk, climb, ride for a long time, people who stand and walk for a long time, people who have difficulty walking or need leg and foot health care, and people with congenital arch collapse such as flat feet can wear functional socks.

[0003] When wearing ordinary socks, the outside of the foot, heel and arch are the parts most vulnerable to injury during exercise. The foot is prone to inversion injury when the exercise posture is not correct, and in severe cases, it may cause tearing or fracture of the lateral ligament of the foot; when exercising for a long time, the heel, foot tendon and calf muscles are prone to fatigue, cramps and strain. In addition, general compression socks apply uniform pressure throughout the foot, resulting in greater resistance around the talus, affecting exercise flexibility and making it easier to get tired during exercise. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a functional sock, which, in view of the problems mentioned in the background technology, produces pressure and support force on the bones, muscles and ligaments of the foot, thereby achieving the effect of relieving foot fatigue and preventing injuries.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problem is: to provide a functional sock, wherein a strong arch pressure belt covering the range from the front part of the arch to the rear point of the heel is provided on the base of the functional sock, and a decompression zone is provided within the range of the strong arch pressure belt so that the pressure in the inner area of ​​the foot is lower than that in the outer area of ​​the foot.

[0006] The functional socks base is provided with a talus pressure belt covering the talus area, the talus pressure belt is surrounded by an ankle joint peri-strong pressure belt surrounding the ankle joint, and the stretching ratio of the talus pressure belt is greater than that of the ankle joint peri-strong pressure belt.

[0007] When the functional socks base is a long sock extending upward to above the calf, two sides of the functional socks base are respectively provided with a leg side strong pressure belt covering the soleus muscle.

[0008] The strong pressure belt around the ankle joint is connected to the strong pressure belt at the arch of the foot, and can be arranged on the inner side, outer side or in the interlayer of the functional socks base.

[0009] The leg side strong pressure belt is connected to the arch part strong pressure belt, and can be arranged on the inner side, outer side or interlayer of the functional socks base.

[0010] Beneficial Effects

[0011] The utility model adds a strong pressure belt with a decompression zone on the arch of the foot, a strong pressure belt around the ankle joint with a talus pressure belt, and a strong pressure belt on the side of the leg on the basis of the functional sock base, dividing the entire sock body into multiple areas with different pressure intensities, which can produce pressure and support force on the bones, muscles, and ligaments of the foot, thereby achieving the effect of relieving foot fatigue and preventing injuries. Specifically, the strong pressure belt on the arch of the foot makes the outer side of the functional socks stronger than the inner side, which can reduce the risk of inversion during exercise; the talus pressure belt with a higher stretch ratio allows the talus, where the skin stretches the most during exercise, to move more flexibly and reduce fatigue; the strong pressure belt on the side of the leg supports and fits the Achilles tendon to prevent fatigue cramps and muscle damage.

[0019] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention. In addition, it should be understood that after reading the content taught by the present invention, those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to the present invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by the claims attached to this application.

[0020] The utility model provides a functional sock, wherein a strong arch pressure belt 2 covering the range from the front of the arch to the rear point z of the heel is provided on the functional sock base 1, and a decompression zone is provided within the range of the strong arch pressure belt 2 to make the pressure in the inner side of the foot lower than that in the outer side of the foot.

[0021] The line passing through the highest point of the inner side of the arch and perpendicular to the length direction of the foot is defined as the O line. The range covered by the arch strong pressure belt 2 includes the range between the a1a2 line located between the sesamoid line P line and the O line and the heel rear point z. The pressure of the decompression zone 201 is less than the pressure of the remaining range. The decompression zone 201 can be hollowed out, retain the functional socks base 1 without setting the pressure belt, or only set a low-pressure pressure belt with a pressure lower than that of the arch strong pressure belt, so as to ensure that the pressure generated by the functional socks in the inner area of ​​the foot is lower than that in the outer area of ​​the foot. Specifically, point a1 and point a2 are more than 1 cm away from the O line.

[0022] In a specific embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the range of the decompression zone 201 is an arc-shaped area with the projection line of the talus line Q line on the sole as the middle part (its bottom side is the b1 b2 line), and the radius of the arc-shaped area is smaller than the vertical distance from the inner side of the foot to the rear point z of the heel at the Q line. Specifically, the b1 point is located between the O line and the Q line and is more than 1 cm away from the O line, and the b2 point is located between the rear point z of the heel and the Q line and is more than 1 cm away from the Q line.

[0023] In another embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the range of the decompression zone 201 is the area enclosed by b1b2' as the upper edge and the heel rear point z as the bottom point. Specifically, point b1 is located between the O line and the Q line and is more than 1 cm away from the O line, wherein point b1 is located on the inner side of the foot and point b2' is located on the outer side of the foot. On this basis, the vertical distance from point a2 to the O line is greater than or equal to the vertical distance from point a1 to the O line; the vertical distance from point b2' to the O line is greater than the vertical distance from point b1 to the O line.

[0024] like Figure 3 , 4As shown, the functional sock base 1 is provided with a talus pressure belt 301 covering the talus area, and the talus pressure belt 301 is surrounded by an ankle joint peri-strong pressure belt 3 surrounding the ankle joint, and the stretching ratio of the talus pressure belt 301 is greater than that of the ankle joint peri-strong pressure belt 3. Specifically, in a specific embodiment, when only the front of the talus is covered, the talus pressure belt 301 covers an approximately elliptical area surrounded by points c, e1, d, and e2, with the heel midline as line g, and a line parallel to the g line and 2 cm away from the midpoint of the talus as line f, the distance from point c to the midpoint of the talus is greater than 1.5 cm; the distance from point d to the midpoint of the talus is greater than 1 cm; points e1 and e2 (or points e1' and e2') are located between line g and line f. In some other embodiments, the talus compression belt 301 is arranged to cover the talus, and the coverage range may be a ring surrounded by points c, d, e3, and e4. This solution has a wider coverage range, a smaller low-elasticity range, and more freedom of movement.

[0025] The minimum stretching ratio of the pressurizing material within the talus pressurizing belt 301 is 1.4 times that of the strong pressurizing belt 3 around the ankle joint to match the stretching condition of the skin there.

[0026] like Figure 5 As shown, when the functional socks base 1 is a long sock extending upward to above the calf, a leg side strong pressure belt 4 covering the soleus muscle is provided on each side of the functional socks base 1. Specifically, the edge line of the leg side strong pressure belt 4 close to the heel side is the j line, and the j line extends downward along the soleus muscle along both sides of the gastrocnemius muscle to the strong pressure belt 3 around the ankle joint or the strong pressure belt 2 at the arch of the foot, and the end of the j line is the h point, and the distance between the h point and the minimum circumference of the calf is greater than 5 cm, and the farthest point does not exceed the lower part of the knee, and the width of the single leg side strong pressure belt 4 is greater than 1.5 cm.

[0027] In a specific embodiment, the strong pressure belt around the ankle joint 3, the strong pressure belt on the leg side 4 and the strong pressure belt on the arch of the foot 2 are connected by integral weaving. In other embodiments, they can also be connected by sewing, bonding, gluing or printing. The strong pressure belt around the ankle joint 3, the strong pressure belt on the leg side 4 and the strong pressure belt on the arch of the foot 2 can be arranged on the inner side, outer side or interlayer of the functional socks base 1 by sewing or other methods mentioned above. The pressure belts at various locations can be made of textile materials with certain elasticity and support or non-textile materials such as silica gel and sponge.
